Monday, March 30, 2009, New York, NY- Freelance media correspondent, Jabari, is set to release a digital compilation album featuring artists such as Pusha-T (The Clipse), Wale, Nicki Minaj, Raheem Devaughn, Max B, Young Chris, Curren$y, Charles Hamilton and many more.
The album, entitled Famous on The Internet, "represents the future of music and pop culture. Today's technology is allowing me to put together the greatest independent hip-hop compilation ever while giving fans from all over the world an opportunity to participate in the process every step of the way," says Jabari. "Hip-Hop is beginning to shift back to lyricism, but at the same time people still want to party and dance.  This project is going to fuse the two worlds, and there's no doubt that people will be surprised with the features I have in store".
Jabari aims to bridge the gap between the artist and the fan by allowing users to take an interactive role in creating the album. "The internet is becoming more social everyday. People want to share photos, music, information… everything. And that's what we're going to do with this album, share the process", says Jabari.
Fans will be able to view and respond to live video streams of the artists on the project's website, MakingTheAlbum.net. The website, set to launch later this spring, will be the hub of the project; allowing users to take a creative role in the production of the album. MakingTheAlbum.net will also feature video footage of studio sessions, meetings with labels and contributing artists, and a host of live broadcasts.
Famous on The Internet is scheduled for a third quarter 2009 release.
